I'm always looking for new smoothie recipes, especially ones that are beneficial to my health and a bit different than the 'norm'. Here is an anti-inflammatory smoothie recipe from Well and Awake that uses Strawberry & Basil with a little of my own extra take on it.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx4DrQGhbWYSEIjEBd5dFRzhop4KMaA872lUMWxTo-fCDghTC9ZMM9INCUkvvUFMGA85PdP-oKzTw0gK4KoXhhHWtAuAjV69DFOu6JQbAGZmeshWz8Rf3rmMu3ES-kNJrgQzNNU3mtoPE/s640/20150430_100242.jpg)

This smoothie is more hearty (especially with the added almonds) and is not meant to be drank as a cleansed (like juice cleanses) or a meal replacement. This anti-inflammatory smoothie is meant to "reduce small intestine inflammation and overall acidity in the body."
